The Barton Clay at Barton on Sea is famous for its hundreds of different species of shells. The beds are also rich in shark teeth, fish and mammal remains. Sharks teeth at Barton can be picked up from the foreshore making this location ideal for all the family.
Head towards Highcliff along the A337 and turn down Waterford Road. You can park at the end of the road leading onto Wharncliffe Road. From here you can walk down to the sea where sea defence will be immediately obvious, just past the sea defence is the bed where sharks teeth are found (on the foreshore) and the Barton beds continue all the way along the beach until the next defence is reached. Alternatively you can drive to Barton-on-sea and drive along the sea front (Marine Drive), park along this road (which is free) and drop down over the cliff via land slips. This is not recommended as it is dangerous and not suitable for families.
